Pros

MBDA are a supportive employer who are keen to see you succeed in your current role, while developing your skills and abilities in other areas, within Cybersecurity, or the wider business, if you so wish. Overall I would say it's been a positive experience and would definitely recommend MBDA as an employer.

Cons

Being required to be on site full time.
